le crime

map, pen & pencil on canvas

One of a set of 5 vertical pieces representing highlights - or perhaps, cliches - of France.

French crime cinema has an intense history, stretching from Alain Delain and Jean-Paul Delmondo to Jean Reno and Jean-Jacques Beineix. Here, maps of inner Paris serve as a background for classic movie crime images, reflecting the potent visual style of these wonderful films.
